Obama: 'I Will Not Walk Away'

By the time I’m finished speaking tonight, more Americans will have lost their health insurance. Millions will lose it this year. Our deficit will grow. Premiums will go up. Co-pays will go up. Patients will be denied the care they need. Small business owners will continue to drop coverage altogether. I will not walk away from these Americans. And neither should the people in this chamber.

By the way, I'll be following the speech on my twitter account, @jcohntnr, and writing more on The Treatment, as well.
